Improvements.
With the opening of tho Spring season, we
hope to see the usual activity in building in
our city. Being a place of “ magnificent dis
tances," thoro is yet much unoccupied room—
there are a great many vacant lots on which
fine business houses, tnansious and cottages
would show to groat advantage; and then,
again, thero are many houses which might bo
greatly improved by renovatiou.
—Speaking whorcof, we are reminded that
Mr. John White is having the store under the
Watchman office—formerly the Georgia Rail
road bank—rejuvenated and renovated. We
are pleased to seo this, and hope this ancient
building will he made as attractive as any of
its youthful rivals.
We hear of private houses in contemplation
and hope tho number may be largely increased
(.'Mange of Postal Rates.
We are requested by Col. Taylor to cal) the
attention of our citizens to the fact that by
act of the lato Congress postal rates have been
changed on all mail matter, except letters and
regular issnes of newspapers from office of
publication—all such matter now paying one
cent per ounce instead of two ounces for one
cent, as formerly. - ' ' '1
One of the Handsomest Stores
In tho city, is on tho corner ot College Avenue
and Clayton street, in the now 'Lester block
and 'occupied by Reese Sc Lane. By the way,
the business of our city has increased, expand
ed and stretched out wonderfully within the
past few years. Instead of being chiefly loca
ted on Broad street and College Avenue, as
formerly,-the business of the town is now con
siderably scattered among sovoralstreets, and
has lengthened out both east and west on
Broad street.
Hudisott County.
As will ho seen in another column, tho peo-
plo of Madison have appointed Bell delegates
to the Gainesville Convention. This makes
two for Bell and five for Hill, so far. This
leavos twelve counties yot to hear from.
U. S. Engineers. ■
A party of civil engineers, engaged in sur
veying a railroad routo from tho Great West
to the Southern Atlabtic seaboard, reached this
city last week. They came down the lino of
the Northeastern railroad. Wo understand
that they have instructions to survey all the
several proposed routes. What they may fi
nally recommend, or what route they may re
port as most desirable, we presume that neith
er they nor others know at this time. We
think the Rabun Gap route presents superior
advantages. The practicability of crossing
the mouutain there is not now an open ques
tion, as a road is already graded through the
Gap.

A Prominent Citizen of Banks Bead.
Wc announce with profound regrot the death
of Gen. Thomas F. Anderson, of Banks county,
which occurred recently, as wc learn. Gen.
Anderson was a very remarkahlo man. Born
the year after the declaration of- American in
dependence, he was in his ninety-eighth year
when he died. He took au active part in the
war of 1812, and was a member of both branch
es of the Legislature at various times, and al
ways a leading man in the county of his resi
dence. He was brave and generous to a fault,
and retained his faculties In a most wonderful
degree. The last time wo saw him—about a
year ago—be was unusually active, both men
tally and physically, for a man of bis years—
not appearing then to be more than seventy-
five. Tho deceased was a native of Burke
county, N. C , and came to this State when
quito young, and wa»flio architect of bis own
fortune.

the Gap. While they were engaged in sur
veying these streams they made their head
quarters at Gen. Andrew Miller's, near the
Gap. Having obtained the desired levels on
those streams, they next ran the level for Mid
dle creek, and Coweta, aad intended to ran to
the Tennessee. When they came down towards
Middle creek they made oar father's booae,
at Smith's Bridge, their headquarters. This
is only ten miles south of Franklin. Daring
the running of the level up Middle creek, Capt.
Wrag waa stricken with appoplexy as they
were returning one afternoon from their day’s
work. It was about a mile from home. They
brought him down home, where he lingered a
few days and died. This suspended opera
tions on the survey, for Capt. Bacbeand Lieut.
Pleasanton left with the body of Capt. Wrag
and we have no recollection that they ever re
turned to the work. The practicability of
carrying the streams this corps surveyed into
the Gap will be readily seen when we consider
that tho average water fall from the summit
in the Gap to Franklin is only some seven or
eight feet to tho mile.
Hon. John C. Calhouu took a deep interest
in this survey, and no doubt received from
those engineers bis idea so often expressed,
that Rabun Gap was the moat practicable pass
through the Blue Ridge, south of Vinginia.
We do not recollect the date when the sur
vey was made. We suppose it was somewhere
from 1825 to 1630. This, however, does not
mattor, materially. The government was in
terested, the people all along both sides of
the Savannah, from Clayton to Augusta, were
interested and excited, as our friend, Jesse R.
Siler, says he well remembers. Capt. Bacbe
left the impression upon ns that the project
was a feasible one. We also know that
with comparatively small cost a considerable
volurno of the Tennosseo waters can be
thrown through the Gap into the Savannah.
And uow we ask, in all candor, what other
gap in the Blue Ridge is like this T We have
given facts as we recollect them, and have
done so because they contain a history to the
preservation of which Western North Carolina
is entitled—a history which shows how deep
ly interested the national mind was for con
necting the West and the Sooth in tho better
days of the republic, when the most brilliant
talent and tho profoundest statesmanship rul
ed in the national councils.
Since, however railways havo been invented
and can bo constructed through mountain
passes at less cost than canals with locks and
dams, nothing has been said of this original
project. A survey was made for a railway
from Anderson, S. C., through Rabun Gap to
Knoxville, Tenn. This was a Charleston scheme
and at that time had the sanction of the State
of South Carolina. It was in anto-bellnm times
when the best talent of the dear old State
ruled in hor conncils. Nothing was said of
any consequence at that timo of lines rnnning
from Port Royal, Savannah, Augusta, Athens,
Brunswick, Macon and Atlanta, to Rabun Gap,
as connecting lines. It seems, however, after
the expenditure of several millions by Charles
ton and the State, that Charleston has kicked
off the Bluo Ridgo enterprise. But Athens,
Ga., with a penetration and foresight worthy
the sound commercial sense and great talent
for which her people are justly noted, has
taken up this enterprise, and through the
North-East Georgia charter and company, are
pressing the work steadily and surely towards
Clayton and Rabun Gap. *They are aiming
for the N. C. and Ga. State line, only 14 miles
south of Frankliu. This is an honest compa
ny, who do not move by spasmodic jerks, and
who do uot believe that railroads are built by
gas. They are prudent gentlemen, who are
resolved not to iuvolve themselves and their
road in inextricable debts that will ultimately
deprive them of It. When they build the road
they expect to use it and enjoy its profits and
benefits. They will soon have their trains
running to the Air-Line, and have already
commenced the work of grading north
ward in the direction of Clayton.
The people all along the line are in full sym
pathy with it, and ae the work progresses are
giving it material aid. Whenever the work
roaches the State line, Macon will do her du
ty, you may rely upon that. We do not ex
pect to take a Christmas excursion npon ;he
train from Frauklinin 1875, nor to celebrate
ihe arival of the trains here by a Fourth of
July dinner in 1876. We were cured of such
spasms years ago. Butina reasonable time
and with certainty we look for the completion
of this work. The men who have charge of it
understand its geographical and topographical
superiority. They are apprised of its vaiue
and know its advantages for connecting the
West with the South, and will not remain idle
until the trains run from Athens to Knoxv.’le.
It were foolish to attempt to conceal the fact
that this route has been treated os the speckled
bird by a great many individual and outside
railroad interests. These jealousies, however,
only show reflectively t&e true merit and com
mercial value of this route. Our word for it,
it will ono of these doys come out in brilliant
plumage.
Is thero not room for this rood as others f
Is there not a vast amount of material to bo
removed from this immediate section for which
there is now a constand demand t Oar motto
build nil of them; and lot not ono throw
obstacles in the way of others. Let each line
stand upon its own merits, and when the dif
ferent roads are completed, they will settle by
the laws of demand and the merits of the road
all questions of freight and travel
Aud now that an bonost company has this
enterprise deeply at heart, with a clear oon-
viction of the vast commercial interests involv-

RABUN GAP—MSvFABt AND PRESENT.
We have recently been asked a good many
questions concerning Rabun Gap, the pros
pects for a railroad through it, etc. There 1s
a history connected with Rabun Gap of which
the whole eoufitry seeawtU present oblivious.
It’s really strange that so little should known be
outside of the TennessiSer Valfoyf of the true
character of this remarkable Gap and the to
pography of the oountry on either side of It.
In speaking of some recent surveys ordered by
the government, one gentleman says in a let
ter to ns that be never hoarAit ««ggeated that
tboTennesaee river could be navigated through
North Carolina. We ltnow that the United
Statea governmet, at one time, entertained the
idea of connecting the Savannah and Tennes-'
see rivers by a canal through Rabun Gap. A
survey was ordereU and Cept. ’#aoiys,. Lleut.
